Brilliant I would want to use it offshore. I heard in the USA starlink cracked on people doing what you did and kind off told them they d interrupt the service If used inappropriately..... I am happy it worked for you and that you managed to get away with it, I don't know if I can be confortable relying on it like that... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Saltynuts 6 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 There are literally thousands of boats using the standard starlink dish now. The only real downside is power consumption. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I saw somewhere that folks are setting up "Starlink for RV" (Starlink Roam) on their boat it is OK for coastal with a range of 30 NM ?? Others on here with more knowledge will correct/confirm.
